Trump Accuses Putin of Being a Roadblock to Peace Deal
President Trump did not answer questions about a pause in arms shipments to Ukraine last week during a cabinet meeting on Tuesday, and instead repeatedly criticized President Vladimir Putin of Russia, blaming him for impeding peace deals with Ukraine.
“We get a lot of bullshit thrown at us by Putin, if you want to know the truth. He’s very nice all the time, but it turns out to be meaningless. We’re not happy with Putin. I’m not happy with Putin — I can tell you that much right now because he’s killing a lot of people.” Reporter: “Last week, the Pentagon paused some shipments of weapons to Ukraine. Did you approve of that pause?” “We wanted to put defensive weapons because Putin is not — he’s not treating human beings right. He’s killing too many people. So we’re sending some defensive weapons to Ukraine, and I’ve approved that.” “So who ordered the pause last week?” “I don’t know, why don’t you tell me.”
